Bryan Danielson Thought Doctors Were Going To Talk To Him About Retirement
Bryan Danielson is back.
Bryan Danielson suffered an injury at AEW Double or Nothing in the Arena Anarchy match. Danielson has had a history of concussions and was forced to retire for two years due to concussion issues. Recently, Bryan sat down to speak with Renee Paquette on a live episode of The Sessions at Starrcast V, where he revealed the concern around his latest injury.

A lot of the military is doing it for people who have had concussions. It’s not FDA approved yet. That stuff is a long process. I did that, 100 sessions of that, where I’m in there for an hour and a half each time.

He also touched on a good diet, cardio, and constant learning are good for your brain, but didn’t want to go into full details because he’s not a doctor.
